EN60684-3-228:2004 INTRODUCTION This International Standard is part of a series which deals with flexible insulating sleeving for electricalpurposes. The series consists of three parts: Part 1: Definitions andgeneral requirements (IEC 60684-1) - Part 2: Methods of test (IEC 60684-2) - Part 3: Specifications for individual types of sleeving (IEC 60684-3) This standard is one of the sheets comprising Part 3, as follows: Sheet 228: Heat-shrinkable, semi-rigid polyvinylidene fluoride sleeving, flame retarded, fluid resistant, shrink ratio 2:1. EN60684-3-228:2004 FLEXIBLEINSULATINGSLEEVING- Part 3:Specifications for individual types of sleeving- Sheet 228: Heat-shrinkable, semi-rigid polyvinylidene fluoride sleeving, flame retarded,fluid resistant, shrink ratio 2:1 1 Scope nominal shrink ratio 2:1, fluid resistant polyvinylidene fluoride sleeving for use at temperaturesupto175°C. This sleeving is normally supplied with an internal diameter up to 25,4 mm, and the standard colouristransparent. Sizes or colours other
